Weather permitting my 4 designs for the second series of Mandurah Bridge Banners will be erected on Monday 17 September.

All very exciting, after submitting my design application in March this year the wait is nearly over to see them hung on the new Mandurah traffic bridge.

Four of my designs were selected for the second series of banners to adorn the new Mandurah Traffic Bridge in Western Australia.The new traffic bridge has 14 Banners across its width. The Inaugural series was by Emma Blyth using images from her paintings for the Mandurah Crabfest over the past 20 years.

It was an exciting challenge to make the designs fit into the long thin design of the Banners.

The finished paintings were applied onto a marine ply base 1:5 ratio of the 7metre high banners that are only 500mm at their widest point. They were then photographed and sent off to be printed onto the PVC Banners.

Below shows the process of the banners from concept to completion or almost.....

The concepts chosen from my submission were 1. Octopus2. Local fish3. Stingray4. Spoonbill
